The state of New Jersey is a “buyer beware” state, meaning that the seller of the property will not be held liable for any issues found with the property after the sale is complete. However, the seller is obligated to inform potential buyers of any known material defects before the sale, and any misrepresentations may be faced with legal action. The state also requires that the premises be livable, even if the property is sold “as is.”
